Hi,

It is the original filter which matches both streams.

I am able to define filter manually, it is no problem, is has to be:
(ip.src==ADDR1 and tcp.srcport==PORT1 and ip.dst=ADDR2 and
tcp.dstport==PORT2) or
(ip.src==ADDR2 and tcp.srcport==PORT2 and ip.dst=ADDR1 and
tcp.dstport==PORT1)

But my questions are:
1) is there any shorter filter wich could be used
2) should not be this fiter cretaed with "conversation tools" (context
menu, conv. dialog) instead of current one which can filter two streams?

Try somthing along the lines of ip.src==ADDR1 and ip.dst=ADDR2 and
tcp.srcport==PORT1 and tcp.dstport==PORT2. 

So not a bug.

	If I filter conversation from the context menu or the
Conversations dialog it crates filter in following way (or similar):
	ip.addr==ADDR1 and ip.addr=ADDR2 and tcp.port==PORT1 and
tcp.port==PORT2
	
	Unfortunaty it matches to two TCP streams
ADDR1:PORT1<->ADDR2:PORT2 and ADDR1:PORT2<->ADDR2:PORT1
	and if I have both of them in one file it is not easy to filter
them from conversations menu.
	
	Was it an intention or is it a bug?
	
	If it is a bug what another filter style should we generate?
	
	Regards,
	Tomas
